What I said was not complicated. There are two rocks and they are both in motion relative to the universe, but they are staionary with respect to each other. Assume that they are accelerating. Call them Rock A and Rock B. For both of these rocks, they could be regarded as being in a gravity field, or they could be regarded as acceleration through space. Rock A and rock B can be separated by ANY distance. If you test rock A and find that it is accelerating then you have "spooky instantanoues knowledge" about rock b. If you test rock A and find that it is in a gravitational field then you have "spooky instantanoues knowledge" about rock b.

Assume > that they are accelerating. Call them Rock A and Rock B. "Motion relative to the universe"???? The universe is everything, including two rocks. Whether a rock is in motion or not depends strictly on the point of view of an observer. Let's be a bit more precise--assume two rocks. With respect to each other: x > 0 v = dx/dt = 0 and accelerating? dv/dt ≠ 0

This seems to work that way. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Orbit1.gif > Assume that they are accelerating. Assumptions don't exert forces. You have to be more specific: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration > Call them Rock A and Rock B. Hello Rock A. Hello Rock B. So nice to meet both of you. :-) > > For both of these rocks, they could be regarded as being in a gravity > field, or they could be regarded as acceleration through space. No they can't be regarded both ways because you can be more specific about what you mean by acceleration You want to be taken seriously, remember? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_%28physics%29#Torque_and_rotation Sue... > Rock A > and rock B can be separated by ANY distance.
